We still have a few official days of summer left before fall is in full swing. We’ve been getting a small dose of the crisp fall weather, but it’s definitely time to break out the sweaters, scarves and boots. And, in case you aren’t sure, the first official day of fall in Sunday, September 22.

Take a look (and shop!) at our Fall Lookbook featuring four different trends we’re most excited about for the upcoming season. (more…)

This one is for the boys who are trying to impress the ladies. Hopefully by now you’ve worked your charm and you got that pretty young thing to agree to go on a date with you. You won her over with your personality and mutual interests, but you need to keep impressing her. She’s going to want to see how dynamic you are and how you flourish in different settings.

Basically, we women, notice details and we’re using them to judge you. While we’re enjoying the moment with you, we’re also trying to determine what a future with you would be like (whether its short term or long term). Your first impressions are vital, so you better dress to the nines and open doors for us – chivalry is NOT dead. (more…)

The ultimate go-to summer look. It’s perfect to throw on and shop or go out for a lunch date with friends. Add accessories to dress it up for nighttime! Shop the items featured in today’s 22 Seconds of Style:

Rain, rain go away come again while I’m on vacation in the Bahamas. Rain sucks. Unless you’re trying to sleep or overindulge in carbs (guilty!), then it’s the perfect motivation. The sidewalks in the city become filled with slow-walking, umbrella-carrying, rain-boot-wearing, frizzy-hair-having pedestrians that all have the same grimace as the horizontal rain sprinkles onto their faces, making their umbrellas mostly useless.

I was near the Meatpacking District meeting some friends for a lazy Sunday carb-loading Italian dinner (check out the tiramisu above) while checking out everyone’s drizzle style and taking creeper shots. The rain stayed at a consistent drizzle/fuzzy sprinkle all day so people were dressed across the board. I caught some overly prepared tourists walking around in their candy colored PVC ponchos who looked like they were ready for a monsoon, and locals who were mostly dressed in light hooded jackets, hats or completely unprepared as if it was just another sunny day. I met a group of friends all with their individual styles to combat the elements.

As the saying goes: April showers bring May flowers. We’ve been experiencing some pretty unpredictable weather this month in New York. If you’re like us and haven’t been able to feel the full effect of spring, we put together a few versatile, fashionable outfits that will get you through this weather roller coaster. (more…)

I LOVE vintage everything. The idea of a vintage piece that has stood the test of time and lived to tell a story about it fascinates me. The garments and accessories from past decades reflect the mood of the people, the advancement in technology, political drama and social standards. Through time loosened whale bone corsets, shorter hemlines, burned bras, acid wash jeans, and men with lipstick have become socially acceptable, though not without controversy and drama.

Why the constant push for change? Because fashion loves drama, drama is entertainment, and entertainment is money. After all, it’s money that makes the world go ‘round. And although past trends may resurface there is always a new modern twist. Fashion will continue to push social boundaries so long as people can be offended and technology advances. (more…)

Your fashion style has to embrace a lifestyle for a young person on the go. You want to have an outfit that can be worn many different ways. What is a “life stylist?” I believe a life stylist embodies fashion, beauty and travel that understand the latest trends. (more…)

Happy Easter to those of you who celebrated! And to those who didn’t- I hope you celebrated the revival of the spring season into your closet now that temperatures are finally warming up. After all, that is what the Easter bunny and it’s basket of eggs symbolize, the fertility and new life that come with spring. That means lighter layers, brighter colors, fresher prints and hints of our pale complexions peeking out – finally.

Fun fact: Did you know that female rabbits are able to conceive a second litter while they’re still pregnant with their first? That seems like a painful and unnecessary ability, but it’s no wonder that the rabbit and egg were the chosen signs of new life and fertility. Although its seems like poor judgement for someone to trust a bunny to hop around carrying a basket of fragile pastel painted eggs to hide, I appreciate unlikely pairings – in life and in wardrobe.

Hope you’re all enjoying this extension of winter and know that the groundhog has been rightfully indicted (LOL). Check the news if you don’t know what I’m referring to. We’re all still bundled up in coats and scarves in NYC. Try a SMYTHE blazer under a detachable fur coat collar for a look similar to mine.

A ‘faux pas’, as I’m sure you all know, is the refined French way that we like to refer to a social blunder. Because everything sounds better in French, including our embarrassing fashion mishaps.

The first stage of all (if not, most…I hope) is infatuation. Ladies, you all know when you first meet someone and you really hit it off, you’re totally smitten. “Oh my gosh, you won’t believe where we went on our first date.” “I know we just met but I can really see this going somewhere.” “We’re soul mates.” (more…)

It’s the last day of 2012! This year was full of so many different emotions from devastation caused by natural disasters, the Olympics, celebrity scandals, politics, great fashion around the world and countless more. Go back in time and take a look at our top 12 celebrity items from 2012. (more…)

Spend your last four nights of Hanukkah with SINGER22! We picked out some of our favorite items from brands like Torn by Ronny Kobo and Spirit Hoods, if you're still on the hunt for last minute gift ideas.

When I opened my Twitter app this morning, I read a tweet from Carrie Bradshaw (yes, I follow Carrie Bradshaw) and it couldn't have been more appropriate: "If Friday was a cocktail, it would be a Cosmopolitan."

In complete agreement with Ms. Bradshaw, we searched the Internet for a fabulous Cosmo recipe and came across Emeril's NYC Cosmopolitan. Grab your girls and get dolled up because it's Friday, ladies! Don't know what to wear? Our stylist, Casey, picked out a flirty and sexy outfit for a fun night out! Check it out below. (more…)
